Default Changing out suspension..what else should I change??

Hey guys, I am getting KYB AGX shocks and some H&R sport springs on Tues. I am currently riding on OEM 163K mile suspension. The car handles HORRIBLY at high speeds. The back end always feels like it gets light when I take a gradual turn at 70+ mphs. I am hoping this is because of my old suspension.

Anyways, what else should I change?? Bushings?? Anything else?? I am not looking for additional components like strut bars...etc...I am looking to get my steering more like it was when the car was new.

So far..I only have a Neuspeed strut tower bar.

Thanks for your suggestions.

would a ST Sway Bar be an additional component?

But i heard only the rear would be beneficial.

i would change the bushings if the stock ones are worn out.

just out of curiousity.... are you installing them yourself or having a shop do it? i just got my AGX's and H&R Sports in the mail and the only place to call me back quoted me THREE HUNDRED AND SIXTY F*CKING DOLLARS.....(360 lol),..... damn bastards. anyways, if you're doing it at a shop can you tell me how much $$$ they are charging? put some pics on here too i want to see how it looks.

That being said, shocks and springs would be great, camber kits will help a lot w/ tire wear. Bushings would be good, but IMO they're not worth the effort or money, unless you're serious about your suspension, which it doesn't look like you are.
